JOHNSTOWN FLOOD. 



Office of Citizens' Relief Committee, 
Pittsburgh, Pa., 1890. 



To the Contributors : 

On the western slope of the Alleghenies, near their base, nestled 
the prosperous and busy city of Johnstown, with its neighboring vil- 
lages, for a distance of twelve or fifteen miles in the valley of the 
beautiful Conemaugh, Avhen on the last day of May, 1889, at four 
o'clock in the afternoon, it was almost swept from the face of the 
earth by the most terrible flood ever known in this country, caused 
not only by the heavy rains of many days, but by the bursting of the 
South Fork Dam, which let out a body of water of about 700 acres, 
sixty or seventy feet deep, causing death and destruction for more 
than twenty miles below, with a loss of life and property unprece- 
dented in the history of our country. In the morning there stood 
hundreds of substantial and beautiful houses, streets of warehouses 
filled with merchandise, hotels, churches, schools and factories ; when 
night came there was but a plain of gravel and mud, splintered frag- 
ments of houses, scattered piles of bricks, masses of massive machin- 
ery torn from their beds in the factories and lying in shapeless piles 
of ruin, scattered and broken household furnishing, costly merchan- 
dise, and thousands of corpses buried in the mud and water. 

In one short and terrible hour more than sixteen hundred houses, 
filled with men, women and children, were wrecked and ruined. The 
loss of life will never be known, but is certainly between two thousand 
and three thousand. The round house of the Pennsylvania Railroad, 
with over thirty huge locomotives, the great Gautier Steel Works, 
woolen and grist mills, scores of factories, iron and wooden bridges, 
hotels, stores and dwellings, two passenger trains, with their living 
freight, locomotives and hundreds of freight cars, stables and teams 
in harness, all drifted into one mass against the stone bridge of the 
Pennsylvania Railroad, and were then by the resistless force of the 
flood piled high above the raging waters, where for thirty hours fire 
added its horror to the scene, consuming both the living and the dead 
in plain view of the houses on the hills above the flood, where thou- 
sands could only watch, without the power of rendering any assistance. 
This, in brief, was the situation when the telegraph flashed the news 



to sixty millions of sympathizing people of our own land, while the 
ocean cables carried the news to the whole civilized world. It would 
be impossible, in this limited report, to more than briefly outline the 
awful scenes of that night. In the language of another, " to tell of the 
many incidents of love and devotion, courage and unselfishness, in that 
fearful night; to tell of the filial affection that went down to death, rath- 
er than survive the parent it could not save; to tell of the motherly love 
that swept on to death with the children it would not desert; to tell 
of the faith that sang hymns of holy cheer, floating amid the terrors 
of that night down the waters into the arms of death, is but to repeat 
what in hundreds of papers has been told by correspondents and wept 
over by the nation's readers." 

It was this that summoned Citizens' Meetings in all parts of this 
country, at many places in Europe, and even in far off Asia, this, too, 
voiced in the stirring appeal of the Mayors of the two cities, that 
called together the people of Pittsburgh and Allegheny in that now 
famous meeting at Old City Hall early Saturday morning, June 1st, 
1889, a brief account of which will be found in the report of Treas- 
urer Thompson. 

As soon as the members of the " Citizens' Relief Committee" had 
been named at the meeting in Old City Hall, and while that meeting 
was yet in progress, they convened at the Chamber of Commerce, 
organized by the election of a Chairman and Secretary, appointed 
committees from within and outside of their number, to collect money, 
receive and ship donations of clothing, groceries, etc., to arrange for 
transportation both east and west by rail and river, to receive and 
house temporarily the homeless who would soon arrive from Johns- 
town, to receive, answer and direct the hundreds who were already 
offering their personal assistance for work here or in Conemaugh Val- 
ley, etc, etc. The flood of telegrams flowing in from all parts of the 
country, telegrams of sympathy, offers of aid, enquiries for friends in 
Johnstown, made necessary the immediate employment of a special 
operator, and a committee to respond. Systematic work began at 
once. It would gratify this committee to be able to name the various 
committees and the many generous and efficient helpers who relieved 
them during the first two weeks of much work both by day and night 
(for the main office at the Chamber of Commerce was for nearly 
thirty days kept open night and day), but space will not permit, and 
many names were never enrolled, as they deserved to be, among the 
workers. Two permanent committees, however, because of the very 
responsible and continuous work done by them, should have mention. 
I refer to the Committee upon Railroad Transportation and the 



distribution of supplies in the flooded district, composed of Messrs. 
James B. Scott, H. E. Collins, A. J. Logan, John Bindley and William 
Flynn, and that on the receipt, purchase and shipment of supplies of 
every sort, composed of S. S. Marvin, John Pontefract and Geo. W. 
Dilworth. The large corps of physicians, the Committee of Under- 
takers, and very many others, are perhaps equally deserving of per- 
sonal and particular mention, but names and reports of service are 
not at hand, and I must forbear. 

The haste in sending forward relief renders it impossible to fully 
report all of the supplies furnished by the Committee. It would 
afford it great pleasure to thank each individual and locality for the 
donations and labor, but the task is impossible. Night and day, every 
hour, and every moment, tens of thousands worked with a will all 
over the country, gathering and hurrying forward food, clothing, 
money, etc., while in the stricken valley other thousands with warm 
hearts and busy hands, were removing wrecks, rescuing the living, 
burying the dead, and comforting the dazed and sorrowing survivors. 

The Western Union Telegraph Company, the Baltimore & Ohio 
Railroad, and the Pennsylvania Railroad deserve especial mention- 
The whole service of all three was placed free at the disposal of 
this Committee ; and while they had suffered in the great flood 
to the extent of millions of dollars, they seemed to forget all 
but suffering Johnstown. Some idea of the difficulty of supplying 
Johnstown can be had when we state that the nearest train 
could get only to Sang Hollow, four miles distant, whence food 
and supplies had to be carried on the shoulders of men, or hauled 
miles around over the mountains, and then for two days could not 
be sent across the swollen waters into the city proper. Rope 
ferries and improvised bridges were made as quickly as possible, 
when all were fed and relieved. In a single day 28,000 rations were 
furnished. 

The statement of the Treasurer will show that the money received 
and disbursed for the direct aid of Johnstown reached the large sum 
of $831,295.62 ; add to this the value of the provisions, ready-made 
clothing, and necessaries of all kinds, and the total sum will easily 
reach one million of dollars, while perhaps three times that amount 
was sent to the Governor of the State, all the noble and spontaneous 
expression of sympathetic hearts of men, women, and children, poor 
and rich alike, in our Christian land and throughout the world. 

And now at the end of eight months w r e find the survivors 
hard at work restoring as best they can their homes and property. 



6 

The dead who were hastily buried have been removed to a beantiful 
lot in " Grandview Cemetery" where, from the mountain height, may 
be seen the little river harmlessly winding its way through the valley 
of death. 

The reports of Mr. William R. Thompson, Treasurer ; of Mr. James 
B. Scott, the member of our Committee who took charge at Johns- 
town ; of the Ladies' Relief Committee, and the resolution of our 
Committee explaining the reason for turning over the balance of 
money in its hands to the State Committee, are all herewith pub- 
lished. 

With a full appreciation of the generous freedom with which you 
have given, and a gracious sense of the confidence you have placed 
in this Committee, we bespeak also your most generous criticism 
where we may have unintentionally failed wisely to bestow what you 
have so freely given. It has been a privilege rather than a task to 
discharge the duties thus laid upon us, and we, therefore, in our own 
behalf as well as that of the sufferers in Conemaugh Valley, return 
you our most hearty thanks. 

Respectfully submitted, 

WILLIAM McCREERY, Chairman. 



STATEMENT. 



The Citizens' Relief Committee, feeling that it is due to the public 
who had so largely made them the custodians of their gifts for stricken 
Johnstown, that some explanation should be made of the fact that 
they turned the larger part of the funds over to the State Commis- 
sion appointed by Governor Beaver for final distribution, would make 
the following statement : 

A very large proportion of the contributions from New York, New 
England, and the eastern part of the State had been sent direct to 
Governor Beaver. Other portions of our State than Conemaugh Val- 
ley had met with severe losses of life and property in the same great 
disaster, and after the pressing and immediate wants of each section 
had been met, it seemed to us that the harmonious action that had 
hitherto prevailed between both custodians of the fund would be 
made more efficient for the permanent relief of all parties if a joint 
committee were formed. The appointment of a State Commission, 
upon which Governor Beaver invited three of our most efficient 



workers, namely, Mr. James B. Scott, Mr. Reuben Miller, and Mr. 
S. S. Marvin to serve, met with the unanimous approval of our Com- 
mittee, and we at once transferred four hundred thousand dollars of 
the funds then at our command to the Treasurer of the new State 
Commission. 

This Committee, however, continued its weekly meetings, closing 
up as rapidly as possible the work still upon our hands, and hearing 
reports of the larger work of the State Commission from our repre- 
sentatives, the gentlemen above named. At a later date, September 
21, 1889, we passed the annexed resolution, at the same time direct- 
ing our Treasurer, Wm. R. Thompson, to transfer the additional sum 
of one hundred and sixty thousand dol'ars to the Commission. 

Resolved, That this Committee, aware of the grave difficulties that have pre- 
vented a wise and equitable distribution, at an earlier date, of the funds at the 
disposal of the State Commission, and recognizing the care and labor bestowed 
by them in discharge of the onerous duties laid upon them, would hereby ex- 
press their general and hearty approval of the manner in which their work has 
been ihus far done. Discontent with the awards in some quarters is to be ex- 
pected. It is impossible to please everybody. Criticism from the wise few who 
know just what should be done under all circumstances, will follow, as it has 
preceded their action, but the Commission can safely commit the final report of 
their work to the discriminate judgment of the generous donors whose gifts 
they have sought with sincere purpose wisely to disburse. 



REPORT OF JAMES B. SCOTT, CHAIRMAN OF RELIEF 
CORPS, AT JOHNSTOWN. 

William McCreery, Esq., 

Chairman Pittsburgh Relief Committee : 

Dear Sir : — At the meeting of your committee held at noon on 
Saturday, June 1st, 1889, a special committee was appointed to pro- 
ceed to Johnstown and vicinity for co-operation in all matters con- 
nected with the terrible disaster of the day previous. Immediately 
upon appointment your committee was met by offers of personal 
assistance in the service about to be undertaken, which offers were 
accepted and the volunteers directed to meet within an hour at the 
Union Station of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Meanwhile the gen- 
erosity of a great community manifested itself with a marvelous 
promptness and to such extent that by four o'clock P. M. of the day 
on which the intelligence of the fearful fate of the Conemaugh Val- 
ley had been made public a large train of provisions and clothing 



8 

had been filled and stood ready for the word to start. The commit- 
tee made immediate preparations, and held counsel with Mr. Pitcairn 
and Mr. McCrea, of the Pennsylvania Railway, who furnished every 
facility with an open order addressed "To all Employes " of the road 
to give all possible assistance to your representatives. About four 
and-a-half P. M. the train drew out from its position on Liberty 
Street and started out on its mission. Two passenger cars attached 
were filled with seventy-five ardent and resolute men, including mem- 
bers of all cahings and professions who laid everything aside in the 
one purpose of advancing the work undertaken by the Pittsburgh 
Relief Committee. The Pittsburgh Department of Public Safety 
furnished a detachment of eighteen selected men from the police 
corps of the city, who accompanied the expedition. In the arduous 
task which fell to these volunteers, it is hoped that their patriotic and 
brotherly service will never be forgotten, rendered as it was under 
conditions of the most self-sacrificing character, with a devotion that 
never flagged, with the sole reward of consciousness of duty per- 
formed. On the way toward Johnstown the relief corps Avas divided 
into two companies, one of which was taken in charge by Capt. A. A. 
Logan and the other by Dr. H. E. Collins, with the understanding 
that in case of continuous work one company would relieve the other. 
Owing to the over-crowded condition of the railroad in consequence 
of the collection and retention of its numerous freight trains east of 
Pittsburgh, the progress of the relief train was naturally impeded so 
that it was not before ten o'clock on Saturday night when it drew up 
at the tower at Sang Hollow, four miles west of Johnstown. Further 
progress by the train was impossible for the reason that for a great 
distance around the long curve at Sang Hollow not a vestige of a 
railway remained, hardly even the location, as the raging flood had 
carried out rails, ties and for a distance even the ballast of the road. 
A visit to the tower found Mr. Thompson, of the railway, at the post 
he had been occupying all day, engaged in the difficult effort to 
transact the telegraphic business of the road over the single wire re- 
maining of the large number generally in use, all of which but this 
one havirg been swept away by the flood, and even this minimum 
service was irregular and uncertain. Mr. Thompson heartily re- 
sponded, but under the circumstances it was next to impossible to 
communicate with the city, where an anxious committee was known 
to be impatiently awaiting tidings from the relief corps. A rapid 
examination and inquiry into the immediate situation developed the 
fact that the great gap alluded to existed around Sang Hollow curve, 
while beyond for some distance the condition of the railway track 



9 

was too perilous for passage by a locomotive. Meanwhile it had been 
ascertained by the use of the single wire, which had been temporarily 
strung around the mountain to the now famous stone bridge, that a lo- 
comotive and work train were standing on the track at a point near the 
bridge. Although the members of the crew had left their work for 
the night, they promptly responded to the message sent from Sang 
Hollow tower to the bridge asking them to move the train down the 
track west as far as it could safely proceed. During this time Com- 
panies A and B had each deployed men to ascertain what could be 
done in view of the fact of the intervening gap. The knowledge of 
the situation on the part of Mr. Dean, in charge of the railway 
forces, brought to the spot during daylight, was of the greatest ser- 
vice. A couple of ordinary hand cars belonging to the road were 
found east of the gap, in which vicinity was also found a quantity of 
lumber. A long improvised car was made by placing the boards on 
the hand cars, which were spread apart as far as the length of the 
lumber permitted. Meanwhile the loaded cars Avere policed and 
guarded from the tramps, Avhich even then were heading for the de- 
vastated city. Two of the cars were opened, and the men of both 
companies, A and B, undertook the severe and unaccustomed labor of 
carrying on their shoulders the boxes, barrels and parcels containing 
food for their famishing brethren. These midnight trips over the 
rough and laborious way were repeated until nearly two car loads of 
provisions had been carried over the long gap and deposited at the 
further side, where the rude but serviceable car awaited its precious 
burden. Then repeated trips of this car were made over the uncer- 
tain track to the place where the men were waiting with the work 
train on which the goods were placed and which received the suc- 
ceeding loads from the gap until the entire quantity carried over on 
the men's shoulders was placed on the train which, with Company A, 
under Dr. Collins, pushed on until it stopped at the stone bridge, 
where it arrived at 1.30 o'clock on Sabbath morning, whose light 
broke on one of the fearfulest and ghastliest sights ever looked upon 
or the imagination of Dante could have conceived. A region of 
horror and devastation, an earthly ante-chamber of Hell. Here further 
progress for the time was stayed. On the upper side of the bridge was 
the horrid jam which produced the great lake engulfing the town. 
The hideous mass, including so much that was inflammable, sending 
its fearful flames and dense smoke high towards the heavens. Beyond 
the bridge for a distance of eight hundred feet the heavy embank- 
ment of the railway had been washed entirely away, and the rushing 
river of indefinite depth whirled its way along past the abutment of 



10 

the bridge. On the bridge^ the first consignment of provisions was 
unloaded, and even at that early hour the eager and apprehensive 
people had learned of the incoming relief and were awaiting its 
arrival. Distribution was immediately begun and in the shortest 
imaginable time was concluded. During the time when the mid- 
night work of Company A was proceeding after the movement from 
the gap, Company B was awaiting the work of the railway company, 
which was being urged toward the securing of a temporary track for 
the passage of the relief train. Probably never in the history of 
corporations was there manifested such remarkable energy and intel- 
ligent direction as shown in the resurrection of the railways drowned 
by the appalling floods of May 31st. Even under such an unexpected 
and terrible blow the great company, whose remaining facilities were 
placed at the command of the relief corps, did not hesitate for a 
moment but summoned the resources of its western terminus and 
those of its allies with such promptness and success that during the 
day following the flood all necessary supplies of timber, rails and 
material, with a complement of men, were placed upon the ground. 
During all that Saturday night while the work of the relief corps 
proceeded as described, the operation of building a railway de novo 
around Sang Hollow gap was being conducted with a- rapidity and 
skill nothing short of marvelous. When it was first announced that 
the track all the way to the bridge would be in shape sufficient to 
convey the train some time early on Sabbath forenoon, the statement 
could not be credited, but it resolved itself into the fact that between 
seven and eight o'clock A. M. the relief train pushed its way over 
the newly-made road and in a few minutes halted on the stone bridge. 
There, as has already been said, was the end of all immediate for- 
ward movement. Part of the train load was discharged at the 
bridge to await the earliest opportunity for sending across the torrent. 
The train was then backed and a large quantity of goods unloaded at 
Cambria City, the first station west of Johnstown, from which point 
not only the citizens of the place but those of Minersville and the 
immediate outlying districts were provided with food. The train 
was then brought back to Morrellville, two miles west of Johnstown, 
which was found to be the best point for general distribution to the 
greatest number of places in the flooded district. Almost a dozen 
towns, and even the district of Johnstown, known as Kernville, were 
all relieved from Morrellville by wagon. The topography of the 
general locality must be known to understand the propriety of such 
a point for so general distribution. On Sunday morning a stout rope 
was swung over the river at the stone bridge and by this means many 



11 

of the boxes and packages of food were taken over to the section in 
which is located the Pennsylvania Railroad station. A messenger 
from Johnstown proper brought word that General Hastings, Adju- 
tant-General of the State, had been in the neighborhood at the time 
of the flood and was yet in Johnstown at the railroad tower near the 
station, but of course without supplies or resources of any kind. The 
rope alluded to was, in the earlier part of Sunday, doing its duty, and 
on it the Pittsburgh policemen were sent over with instructions to 
report to General Hastings, in view of the great number of tramps 
and suspicious persons pouring toward the town from apparently all 
the points of the compass. Mayor Pearson, of Allegheny, sent on 
the same day'a detachment of ten efficient police, who were retained 
for service between Morrellville and the bridge. On Sunday after- 
noon a swinging bridge was secured over the chasm and, while pre- 
carious, was a great advance over the rope. On Monday Capt. Clark, 
of the Mayflower, brought up a number of boats by which a floating 
ferry was established over the Conemaugh to Johnstown proper, and 
which proved of the most valuable assistance. On this same day 
(Monday) the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, with remarkable energy, 
effected a completion of its track into Johnstown proper. The West- 
ern Union Telegraph Company, on same date, furnished a special 
wire to the headquarters of the committee at Morrellville, when in- 
structions were sent to Pittsburgh to have all provisions for Johns- 
town itself sent via B & O. Railway, which was done with promptness 
and success. Meanwhile the location at Morrellville continued to 
prove a valuable depot for supplies and an admirable point for dis- 
tribution. The Pennsylvania Railroad forwarded rapidly the great 
number of cars which were being collected at and sent on through 
Pittsburgh from all parts of the country. The distribution was ener- 
getically conducted day after day, and it is safe to say that from the 
dawn of that first Sabbath after the flood not a single person went 
hungry to bed in all that region. During Saturday, the day succeed- 
ing the disaster, the usual domestic supplies of food in possession of 
the citizens unharmed by the flood, sufficed for the wants of all, while 
the prompt receipts of provisions through the relief committees drove 
away all fear of famine and starvation. At this early day, namely 
Monday, large bodies of men, mainly in charge of Hon. William 
Flynn and the late Capt. W. R. Jones, of Braddock, began to arrive, 
and also delegations in charge of managers and superintendents of many 
manufacturing concerns in the general vicinity of Pittsburgh, all with 
the purpose of attacking and destroying the terrible mountains of debris 
collected in the lower sections of Johnstown and in Kernville. The 



12 

principal part of Johnstown had been left in the condition of a 
desert, a vast plain covered with sand and dirt which had been 
brought down the valley by the rushing waters and deposited to an 
average depth of many feet on the acres previously covered by closely 
built houses and shops, not a vestige of which remained to show 
former location or existence. The enormous quantity of material 
composing the hundreds and even thousands of structures, and in- 
cluding the extensive mills of the Gautier Company and the round 
houses of the Pennsylvania Railroad at Conemaugh, with numberless 
houses along the track of the torrent above, was swept over the plain 
and gorged at the stone bridge forming the great dam alluded to, 
lodging the fearful mass over the lower and main sections of Johns- 
town and Kernville, filling the streets with all manner of wreckage 
as high as an ordinary house, and in which were imprisoned number- 
less bodies of men, women and children, with those of horses, cattle 
and all kinds of animals. To the apparently hopeless work of clear- 
ing this fearful valley— not of the shadow — but of death itself, were 
applied the labors of the men brought for the purpose, and under the 
intelligent and skillful direction of the leaders alluded to, the work 
went on rapidly. Between six thousand and seven thousand men 
were thus employed, whose maintenance and equipment were sup- 
plied through the Pittsburgh Relief Committee. 

The unparalleled generosity of the nation about this time changed 
in the character of the gifts. Money was substituted for food and 
clothing which were thenceforth to be purchased and forwarded 
through the committee. At this time the number depending upon the 
Pittsburgh Relief Committee for their daily bread was about twenty- 
eight thousand, not a soul of whom lost a single meal unless through 
personal neglect to apply. On Tuesday, June 4th, a mass meeting 
of the citizens of the valley was held, when it was determined to 
appoint a person to be clothed with plenary powers in all matters 
pertaining to the affairs of the valley. The history of the days en- 
suing between that date and the time when the State assumed direc- 
tion of the work by arrangement with Governor Beaver, includes 
the statement of work of the character already described, and also 
that of the general supervision and direction of the affairs of the 
committees represented at the meeting mentioned above. A citizens' 
organization had already been formed, or attempted, but the distress- 
ing circumstances in which every one found himself — confronted by 
death en all sides, home destroyed, family sundered, each hour adding 
certainty to dread as to the fate of near and dear ones — united to 
paralyse every effort for joint efficient action. The attempts in this 



13 

direction were even frustrated by such facts as the subsequently 
ascertained death of many of the appointees. At the same time, 
even in the face of so discouraging a situation, important headway 
had been made by a committee under the chairmanship of Mr. A.J. 
Moxham, of the near town of Moxham, who came into Johnstown and 
rendered excellent service at the peril of his already impaired health. 

The action of this Citizens' Committee was immediately inquired 
into, and with the aid of such persons as could be consulted at inter- 
vals other committees were appointed to proceed under the general 
direction and control authorized by the citizens' meeting on Tuesday, 
June 4th. These committees were : Finance, Morgue, Commissary, 
Supplies, Teams, Removal of dead animals, Removal of general debris, 
Dangerous buildings, I'olice, Outside search for Dead, Transportation 
and information, Hospitals, Fire Department, Sanitary, Employment, 
Registration, Valuables, Time-keeping and books, Department of Public 
Safety, combining military, local and specicd police under Adjutant 
General Hastings. 

The report of these various committees accompany this report and 
you are referred to them tor the details of work and results in the 
various departments. The general sanitary work was placed under 
the immediate supervision of Doctors Lee and Groff, of the State 
Board of Health, who were on the ground early in the morning of 
June 2d, and whose report also accompanies this paper. These gen- 
tlemen continued to give this exceedingly important work their un- 
ceasing attention for weeks and months after the flood, and it is 
largely to their skill and devotion that Johnstown was spared even 
the suggestion of an epidemic. They had exclusive charge of the 
•water-ways in the name of the State, under whose authority all work 
in the rivers was prosecuted. The great jam at the stone bridge, 
after several attacks by uninvited amateurs, was taken in hand defi- 
nitely and skillfully by Major Wm. M. Phillips, through orders of 
Adjutant-General Hastings in the name of the State. Under his 
intelligent direction the great mass rapidly dissolved and the stone 
bridge jam became a thing of the past, AW the committees named 
gave to their duties an earnest and active attention, performing their 
labors under circumstances of the most discouraging and painful 
character within the dreadful shadows of personal bereavement and 
public distress, while the special duties of some can be readily imag- 
ined to be exceedingly revolting, particularly to unaccustomed eyes 
and hands. In this connection it may be well to allude to the extent 
and character of the care of the dead. All bodies found at any point 
were promptly taken in charge at one of the eight morgues established 



14 

at various points in Johnstown and vicinity. From the report of Rev. 
Dr. Beale, Chairman of the Morgue Committee, there had been cared 
for up to June 11th a total number of fifteen hundred bodies, and, as 
found from subsequent frequent examination of graves the work has 
been of the most satisfactory and thorough character. The number 
of bodies found subsequent to June 11th was very large. It is diffi- 
cult to determine the total number of deaths in the Conemaugh Val- 
ley, nor will it ever be accurately ascertained, but from the most 
careful examination of the subject, separated from the wild guesses 
and unfounded speculation of the subject, it is probable that the loss of 
human life in the valley in consequence of the flood, will approximate 
twenty-five hundred, a truly fearful number to be swept out of exist, 
ence without warning or preparation. The destruction of life of 
domestic animals was very great. No necessity existed for keeping 
an account of these, but an energetic committee worked incessantly 
in the interest of the health of the community, destroying effectually 
every carcass by cremation ; not a single one found was disposed of 
in any other manner, except a very few at inconvenient points which 
were thoroughly buried. Nothing was allowed to be thrown into the 
streams, but everything deleterious to the public health was abso- 
lutely destroyed. Not only was the immediate population of Johns- 
town and vicinity deeply interested in this, but those larger popula- 
tions of the great cities below. It is impossible to refer in detail to 
the separate work of all the committees— though highly important — 
but the designation of each as given will suggest its distinctive duty. 
It would be interesting, if practicable in a report which cannot possi- 
bly embrace all details of a work so extensive in its range, to narrate 
the development and approach to comparative perfection of the dif- 
ferent departments of the general plan. One of the most important 
was the Commissary, which was begun in Johnstown proper at the 
beginning under the most difficult and trying circumstance, through 
the immediate supervision of Mr. John Thomas and Captain Kuhn, 
who continued their services after the change of Tuesday, June 4th. 
All cars came to Pittsburgh in such immense numbers, and both the 
railways were in such condition, that it was simply imjDossible to 
secure knowledge of trains en route or of the material contained. 
What this all meant, with over twenty thousand of a resident popu- 
lation depending for their daily bread on the exertions of the Com- 
missary Department can hardly be imagined. There was no time to 
stop and sympathize. It was not " to labor and to wait," but to 
labor and continue, feeding with one hand and straightening out a 
system with the other until at last from chaos and confusion there

arose with comparative rapidity regulation and order, through which 
every person in the valley was able to anticipate their recurring 
meals with as much certainty and precision as though the method had 
been the rule of their lives. 

It is proper here to refer to the fact that the police control of the 
entire district was so effective that not a single case of assault or 
injury occurred, nor was there the slightest foundation for the many 
wild stories of hangings and lynchings, or of mutilation of dead 
bodies. Life in the Conemaugh Valley was as secure as in any city 
in the land. In connection with the progress of the work at Johns- 
town, it is gratifying to acknowledge the numberless and wide-spread 
offers of aid sent in from every section of the country. Prominent 
among the beneficent acts, and very early in the history of the case,was 
the furnishing of a large number of tents by Governor Foraker, of 
Ohio, which were sent forward in care of Adjutant-General Axline 
and which proved of the greatest service through their immediate 
utilization. Personal service of every character was offered, and 
when it could be, accepted. The prudence of the great majority of 
persons in inquiring in advance was specially commended, particu- 
larly in view of the fact of the overcrowded condition of the place 
and the difficulty of making provision for those already there. 
Many well-meaning persons came to Johnstown with the best inten- 
tions but with poorly digested plans. Many consignments of goods 
and donations of money were accompanied by delegations in charge 
who were bound to see their material handed " direct to the people " 
and went away with well-satisfied consciences, unaware to the present 
day that their good intentions generally miscarried, and that their 
contributions of cash and clothing usually fell into the hands of the 
same " rounders" who were constantly on the alert for the oppor- 
tunities presented through such visitors and who were unable to 
deceive those in official charge, the same persons usually receiving 
the cash and goods of these various delegations. The amount of cash 
distributed through private agencies to undeserving persons in the 
well-meant endeavor to do good was very great, and was even fre- 
quently persisted in after notice as to the true character of recipients, 
but in many cases the money was handed over to the responsible 
financial custodians as soon as the facts were made known to the 
bearers of funds. The work of many societies, guilds and agencies 
cannot be estimated. An enormous amount of money was brought 
into the valley through such means and the personal services of their 
representatives cannot be too highly commended. Such societies as 
the " Children's Aid" from each end of the State, the " Red Cross" 



16 

under Miss Barton, and many others contributed to the general end 
of benefit to the sufferers. Another feature of the situation was the 
appearance in large numbers of individuals who knew so much better 
what should be done than those in charge, who could even have pre- 
vented the whole occurrence had they been consulted. Commissions 
from persons high in various authority were in some way secured and 
presented by very ordinary people, who seemed grieved that their 
individual self-importance was not respected and who usually retired 
with the determination to get even with those who were so obtuse as 
not to recognize their claims to attention. These persons were 
fortunately few in number but served the purpose of bringing a 
smile to faces surrounded with gloom and distress and may therefore 
be pardoned. 

On Sunday, June 9th, 1889, Gov. Beaver reached Johnstown with 
members of the relief committee from Pittsburgh. On that afternoon a 
o-eneral consultation was held, when it was determined by the Gover- 
nor that the State of Pennsylvania should assume the responsibility 
for continuance of the work after the evening of Wednesday, June 
12th, 1889, relieving the Pittsburgh Relief Committee, with the 
understanding, however, that the committee would continue to co- 
operate with State officials as long as necessary in such matters as the 
procurement of supplies in which it had such large experience and 
facilities. In accordance with this arrangement the army of laborers 
continuously at work under the direction of Hon. William Flynn, 
was disbanded and paid off on Wednesday, June 12th, the account of 
time and individual pay of every man having been brought promptly 
up to the last hour by the labors ni^ht and day of the Accounting 
and Time-keeping Department under charge of Capt. Breck and Mr. 
Ford. This latter department made little public show or demonstra- 
tion but was of great importance. A very large amount of money 
was involved, and care, accuracy and attention were requisite in the 
highest degree. The system employed by Mr. Flynn in his large 
business operations was availed of in this connection and aided 
greatly in the settlement of the amounts which were disbursed with- 
out confusion, disturbance or dispute. A day or two more was spent 
in Johnstown by your representatives with the view to assist the 
State authorities by fuller explanation of the methods and agencies 
thereto employed, and at the early hour of one A. M., Friday, June 
14th, the special car furnished by the Baltimore & Ohio Railway 
delivered in the station at Pittsburgh the remaining members of the 
relief corps which the Pittsburgh Relief Committee had sent out on 
Saturday, June 1st, 1889. 



It would be improper to conclude this report without special 
mention of the courtesies of the officials of the Pennsylvania Rail- 
road and the Baltimore & Ohio Railway, who afforded your repres- 
sentatives the fullest facilities in their power. Mr. Patton, Super- 
intendent of the Baltimore & Ohio Railway provided your staff at 
Johnstown a special car, fully equipped with every accommodations, 
including a daily supply of food sent regularly from Pittsburgh by 

express.

REPORT OF THE LADIES' RELIEF COMMITTEE. 

Tuesday, June 4th, the Chairman of the Citizens' Relief Committee 
sent word to a number of ladies to meet at 10 A. M., at the Chamber 
of Commerce in order to provide for survivors coming from John- 
stown. About twenty were present representing Pittsburgh and 
Allegheny. 

These ladies at once organized by appointing an executive com- 
mittee, consisting of Mrs. EL C. Campbell, Mrs. George A. Kelly and 
Mrs. William McCreery : also committees for supply, dining room 
and clothing departments, with Mrs. J. B. Herron, Mrs. E. A. Graff 
and Mrs. C. M. Donnell, as chairmen. These ladies had authority 
to add new members to their committees at discretion, and all were 
requested to report at once at the Second Presbyterian Church, the 
use of which had been kindly offered for this service. 

By noon Mrs. McCreery presented a list of hospitals and benevo- 
lent institutions ready to take care of flood sufferers, and at four 
o'clock the tables in the church rooms were spread, a hot meal ready, 
and lavish supplies of food and clothing were pouring in. It is im- 
possible to give any idea of the lavish generosity of the people, not 
only in the first excitement but extending for weeks. 

On Wednesday a Bureau of Information was formed with Mrs. Dr. 
A. Easton, as chairman. What had promised to be a temporary 
shelter had become the haven for many weary ones, making it 
necessary to enlarge the plan of work. Two more members were 
added to the executive committee, as treasurer and secretary : Mrs. 
James B. Scott and Mrs. Wm. R. Thompson. 

Belated trains made it necessary to keep open all night and in each 
department the committees were sub-divided for duty. A telephone 



18 

was put up in the church by the kindness of the telephone company. 
The train committee which met all arrivals from Johnstown at the 
station was greatly assisted by Messrs. H. C. Bair, N. Wylie Steven- 
son, J. G. Bennett, Mr. Gaither and Mr. C. S. Shoemaker, particularly 
at midnight and three A. M. Thanks are due these gentlemen with 
many others who by day and night conducted refugees to the church, 
where a hot meal with soup and coffee awaited the sufferers, then a 
complete outfit was provided — shoes, underwear, dresses, coats, hats 
combs, soap, towels, &c. Afterwards the name and particulars were 
entered in the register and given twice daily to the press, which acted 
as a public directory and was invaluable in assisting the relief work. 
The Bureau of information wrote their letters to anxious relatives, 
searched for lost ones and helped to unite broken families. Hun- 
dreds of postal cards were sent and many heavy hearts relieved to 
know that the lost were found. Then an omnibus carried them, with 
their outfits in heavy paper bags, to temporary quarters where they 
were welcome to stay until friends came, or railroad passes and money 
took them to their destination ; some as far west as Nebraska, 
Wyoming or Oregon, and from Tennessee to Canada. The railroad 
companies vied with other corporations in generosity, sending passes 
on the written request of the executive committee. 

In fifty days two thousand and eight (2,008) persons were cared 
for by the four departments : food, clothing, registry and inquiry. 

Six hundred applications to adopt children were received and 
placed in the hands of the Children's Aid Society. 

After ten days the ladies felt that the regular church work was sadly 
obstructed by the various departments, and, thanking the trustees for 
their hospitality, accepted the offer from Dr. A. H. Norcross of the 
Eighth Street Methodist College. Here daily the committees con- 
tinued to receive, investigate, clothe, entertain and forward the part- 
ino- guest. This continued until June 24th, at which time the mass 
of material sent to Pittsburgh from all parts of the country to Johns- 
town seemed almost undiminished although the laborious work of 
sorting and outfitting had been carried on by a most efficient force. 

The citizens committee requested us to exchange the hospitable 
college for the Exposition building, which contained the stores of 
bedding, groceries, some furniture, hundreds of old shoes, a dress suit, 
worn out liveries, a ball gown, white kid gloves and other donations 
— a motley collection, carefully assorted and labeled by the Messrs. 
Roenigk, Cain and their assistants. Here fifty machines were set at 
work by tireless women, who for several days each week made up 



19 

sheets, table-cloths, towels, &c, by thousands. The sewing machine 
companies offered to give machines to sufferers at a very low figure, 
which was paid out of our funds in special cases. 

There was now no necessity for serving meals to the survivors, all 
were furnished with family supplies, including groceries, flour, bed- 
ding, &c, and orders given for furniture. 

The end of July closed the daily service of this section of relief 
work. Only thirty-four boxes remained, which were refilled with 
winter clothing and lately sent to Johnstown. All of donations were 
acknowledged in cases when the address was given. Most of the 
packages however, were sent anonymously to " Johnstown Sufferers 
Pittsburgh Committee" and to the donors we hereby return our thanks. 

Of the survivors who came to Pittsburgh many were widows with 
young families, the bread-winner having been drowned. Some of 
these have been visited and cared for ever since. 

To gain some approximate idea of the work accomplished during 
our fifty days service, a few facts may be offered : 114,967 garments 
were distributed. When the persons were endorsed by responsible 
parties, clothing was furnished for the absent members of the family, 
About fifty people were fed daily for three weeks and yet the entire 
expenses of the supply and dining room departments were only 
$80.67. 

To quote from Mrs. Herron's report, which we regret cannot 
be printed in full : " When it became necessary, in order to prevent 
waste to restrain the people from giving, it seemed like defrauding 
them of a precious privilege, so sympathizing and anxious were all to 
assist. The supplies were sent in many cases without the names of 
the donors. No one witnessing the outpouring of good things could 
fail to be inspired with the unostentatious charity which had no 
desire to be recognized. Among the largest contributors of table 
supplies were J. B. Beilstein, who gave quantities of meat and an 
open order for anything needed in his line ; Messrs. Wilson of the 
Seventh Avenue Hotel, and Gill of the St. Charles; Craig and Bra- 
ham with many others made liberal donations of meat ; Mr. Dimling 
gave bread ; Messrs. G. K. Stevenson & Co. and Arbuckle & Co. 
gave coffee ; the Chartiers Creamery sent firkins of butter; and R. A. 
Martin milk. Jellies, pickles, fruit, cakes and vegetables were sent 
in daily." Lunch baskets were sent to the church filled with good 
things ready for those about to take long journeys, including comb, 
wash towels and other toilet articles. 



20 

Special mention should be made of the hospitality offered by- 
Allegheny institutions, Emanuel Episcopal Church, the Presby- 
terian Theological Seminary, the Helping Hand Rooms and the 
Home for the Friendless, where Mr. Jarboe, Mrs. Rev. Dr. T. H. 
Robinson, Miss Kate McKnight, Miss Matilda Denny, and their 
eager assistants were ready for the omnibus full of people by day and 
night for two weeks. The hospitals gave every possible service, and 
the church sewing societies of every denomination sent dozens 
of newly made garments. Social engagements were forgotten, and 
the stirring times recalled the work of the Sanitary Commission 
during the war — a quarter of a century ago. There is not space 
to tell of the strange and awful experiences with the demented, 
the widowed, the orphaned ones. The sight of a clean bed or 
cheerful table once more would flood the dazed mind with a new 
sense of loss. 

It is hopeless to try to mention all of those who labored for weeks 
In His Name : The Marys and Marthas co-operated bravely each 
•doing what she could — be it sorting old clothing, writing letters, 
serving tables, nursing babies or comforting the distressed ; each 
modestly striving to manifest her loving sympathy for those who had 
suffered so fearfully. Their names, altho' not recorded here, are all 
known to Him, who will say to them in that day " Come ye blessed 
of my Father ; I was naked and ye clothed me ; hungry and ye fed

TREASURER'S REPORT. 

Wm. McCreery, Esq., President Johnstown Belief Committee. 

Sir : — There are two floods suggested by the thought of Johnstown. 
The first swift, pitiless, never to be adequately described, and giving 
a profound significance to those solemn words — " Thou earnest them 
away as with a flood." The second, a great wave of human sympa- 
thy and magnificent generosity. 

The first destroyed, the second built up. The heart of the people 
was touched and responded so grandly, that it may justly be said, no 
greater work was ever recorded in the history of beneficence than the 
world's work for the relief of Johnstown. 

Old City Hall, the place of the people consecrated by great deeds, 
is rich in historic associations. To these was added the Citizen's 
Meeting, held Saturday June 1st, which those present will not soon 
forget. The quiet assembling, the prompt organization, the brief 
earnest statement by Supt. Pitcairn, the call for contributions, then 



23 

the eager crowding of men to the foot of the platform calling out do- 
nations, holding aloft checks, drafts, bank-notes, promises to pay- 
written on all sorts of scraps of paper. Every question of creed, color, 
race, or condition in life, was forgotten, as each man strove with 
generous rivalry to get his contribution in first. Some idea of the 
spirit of the occasion may be had from the fact that the first hour's 
offerings averaged one thousand dollars per minute in cash. 

But the rush at Old City Hall was only the first dash of the tidal 
wave. The Executive Committee, while fitting out train-loads of pro- 
visions and clothing, had telegraphed the Mayors and Boards of 
Trade of all the principal cities of the country, calling for donations in 
cash or merchandise. It was announced in the evening papers by the 
ministers of the two cities that collections would be taken up in the 
churches the next day. Monday morning brought a veritable storm 
of remittances by letter and telegram, while the churches and Sab- 
bath-schools brought in their collections of pennies, silver of every 
denomination, bank-notes and checks, in cigar-boxes, bags, papers, 
handkerchiefs, and in one instance, the traditional " stocking." It 
was an accumulation of miscellaneous collections, such as no fastidi- 
ous teller would ordinarily take over his counter ; but it held the lit- 
tle child's penny, the widows' mites, as well as the gifts of those " that 
did cast in of their abundance," and for the sake of the cause was taken 
gladly, receipted for, and set aside, to be counted by the force of 
cashiers and tellers of other banks, who volunteered their services, and 
who worked far into the night clearing and accounting, as far as pos- 
sible, for each day's accumulations before beginning the next. 
Briefly stated, it required the services of from eight to ten rapid 
workers from 7.30 P. M. until midnight, for six consecutive nights, 
before the work was thoroughly under control. " Why not organize 
a bank and hire the necessary help ? " Simply because men qualified 
to handle money are not to be hired in an emergency, and this was 
no time to experiment with trust funds. 

Yet the cash contributions were only one feature of the work. 
Stockmen gave cattle ; Minneapolis, flour ; Chicago and Kansas City, 
grain and fresh meat ; Cleveland and Detroit, lumber and chairs ; 
Savannah, tar and rosin; lanterns, lime, log chains, fish, whiskey, 
oil, disinfectants, groceries of every kind, tobacco, snuff, cigars, 
stoves, dishes, hardware, books and a poem to be sold ; even 
the little children sent their dolls and playthings— time would 
fail to tell of what came. It was Emerson's teaching carried into 
practice, every man gave of that which he had. At Old City Hall 
busy men and women were organized into departments, receiving, 



24 

assorting and sending off boxes and bundles of clothing, bedding,, 
blankets, boots, shoes, hats, etc., etc., which were coming in from 
every part of the country. A strange medley it was. The great bulk 
of the donations were of articles sweet, clean, new and appropriate. 
But what an opportunity it afforded for a garret-ridding benevolence ; 
nevertheless everything was accepted in the spirit of charity. 

Down Liberty avenue and Water street the Pennsylvania Railroad 
and Baltimore & Ohio moved empty cars, which were promptly filled,, 
and as promptly sent out. The Western Union Telegraph Company 
placed its wires at the disposal of the committee. Business in the 
two cities was practically suspended, men talked only about the 
calamity or devised means to get supplies to the distressed. " How 
much like war times it was ! " 

Four thousand men, properly equipped and under the command of 
Hon. William Flynn and the late Capt. William R. Jones, were sent 
into the valley to bury the dead, remove debris and render the place 
habitable for the survivors. These laborers, with the number of. 
names which appear on the Johnstown pay-rolls, the men sent 
from Beaver Falls, and those from the National Tube Works, Mc- 
Keesport — whose expenses in the former case were paid by the local 
relief committee, and in the latter, by the workmen at the works — 
make a total of nearly ten thousand men. Add to these the 
number of survivors dependent upon the commissary for subsist- 
ence and you have an army to be fed, clothed and sheltered. This- 
will appear from the fact that 28,000 rations were issued in one day. 
The work of purchasing and forwarding supplies having assumed 
such proportions, Messrs. S. S. Marvin, Geo. W. Dilwor^h, and John 
Pontefract, were appointed a committee in charge of this work. 

It was not long before complaints were made that the money sent 
had not been contributed for sanitary measures, but for the relief 
of the sufferers. At this point — June 12th — Governor Beaver as- 
sumed control of the work, and the Citizen's Committee instructed its 
Treasurer to proceed at once to Johnstown and pay off the men it 
had sent there. It was estimated that $110,000.00 would be needed 
to do this. Here a new difficulty arose. The Express Companies, 
having lost their offices by the flood, would not be responsible for 
money after the arrival of the train in Johnstown. Express safes 
were not to be had. A hasty meeting of the committee was held — 
the Treasurer was authorized to assume the risk, and to take such 
steps as were necessary to carry out the work. A pay-car was secured ; 
the bags of silver and packages of bank-notes laid on the floor for 
for a bed, and at 9 p. m., the party left via the Baltimore & Ohio 



25 

Kail road, with Messrs. H. I. Gourley and C. B. McVay, as assistants;, 
guarded by Assistant Superintendent O'Mara, Inspector McAleese 
and three officers, arriving at Johnstown ten hours later. There, 
under military protection, after two days' work the great majority 
of the men were paid, besides some others who at first had offered 
their services gratuitously. 

On July 26th the Committee transferred to the credit of the Flood; 
Relief Commission the sum of $400,000.00, to be distributed in the 
Conemaugh Valley ; and on September 28th the additional sum of 
$160,000.00 was placed to the same account, making a total of 
$560,000.00. 

The work having been turned over to the Commission, at your 
request the Mayor of Chicago, the Governors of Ohio and Michi- 
gan sent representatives to audit the accounts, and Col. William P. 
Rend, of Chicago ; Auditor-General H. A. Axline, of Ohio, and 
Hon. John K. Boies, of Detroit, with Controller E. S. Morrow, of 
this city, completed the work. In their report which follows, you 
will notice that all the moneys received by your Committee were 
expended in the work of relief. The necessary office expenses, clerk 
hire, etc., amounting to $§3&, having been defrayed privately. 

In concluding this report, the Treasurer begs leave to acknowl- 
edge his indebtedness to the following gentlemen, without whose 
prompt and generous aid, it would have been impossible to have car- 
ried on the work : Messrs. David Robinson, H. I. Gourley, John 
A. Harper, C. B. McVay, Frank C. Hutchinson, William Montgom- 
ery, John D. Fraser, Walter P. Fraser, Charles M. Gerwig, William 
F. Church, J. D. Lyon, Prof. A. E. Frost, John T. Woods, Capt, 
William McClelland, James S. Bell, Andrew W. Herron, Fred. 
Rinehart, Charles Farrar, William Fleming, Joseph Bollman, Charles 
H. Book, Thomas C. Griggs, Robert C. Johnston, C. F. McCombs,. 
S. M. McElroy, R. L. McLean, M. Y. Robertson. 

Thanks are due also to the press, which so materially advanced 
the cause by its patient, accurate work, in giving to the public, daily, 
the names of contributors, and the amounts given. 

One more word. Your Committee may well express to the world 
a sense of gratitude for the confidence reposed in it. Nearly, if not 
altogether, one million of dollars in cash and merchandise passed 
through its hands. This, with the great sums sent to Governor 
Beaver and to Johnstown direct, the self-denial and unrecorded toil 
of numbers of men and women all over the land, refute the pessimis- 
tic assumption that generosity and personal sacrifice are not realizable 



26 

ideals. Crises quicken the heroism latent in human hearts, and 

some compensation for the Johnstown disaster will be derived from 

the exercise of those great and benevolent impulses which never 

fail to spring flower-like from such calamities. 

Respectfully submitted, 

William R. Thompson, 

Treasurer. 
AUDITOR'S REPORT. 

A short time since the Governors of the States of Ohio and Michigan and the 
Mayor of Chicago were requested by the Pittsburgh Citizens' Committee for the 
relief of the Johnstown flood sufferers, to appoint a Commission to examine the 
accounts of the moneys received and disbursed by them. The undersigned 
Commission, appointed in response to this invitation, having made a careful 
inspection of the books, vouchers, bills, checks and various other documents 
pertaining to this relief account, presented by Mr. Wm.R. Thompson, Treasurer, 
to whom was entrusted the sole care and custody of all funds forwarded to and 
collected by this Committee, have to report the following condensed exhibit 
of receipts and disbursements :

The receipts as given above only show the money contributions which passed 

' .through the hands of this Committee. Large quantities of clothing, provisions 

«nd other supplies purchased by State and local committees were forwarded to 

(the flood sufferers through this agency. Many, if not all the States in which 

• credits appear in this report, also sent large contributions of money and 

•supplies to the Governor of the State of Pennsylvania for distribution through 

the Commission appointed by him. 

Eeceipts, accompanied by detailed bills for every item composing the ex- 
penditures above given, were exhibited to the Auditing Commission, by the 
Treasurer, giving complete evidence of the accuracy and thorough system that 
■ characterized the disbursements of the money confided to the Citizens' Belief 
Committee. 

In connection with our endorsement of the financial report submitted to us, 
it may not be inappropriate to briefly refer to the history and to certain of the 
prominent features of the magnificent work performed by the Pittsburgh Com- 
s mittee. 



28 

Immediately after the first sad news of the dreadful disa^er that swept into- 
eternity thousands of lives and that spread ruin and desolation throughout the- 
Conemaugh Valley had been flashed across the wires, a mass-meeting was call- 
ed by the Mayors of Pittsburgh and Allegheny to give expression to the senti- 
ments of sorrow universally felt throughout the country and to adopt immediate 
and effective measures for the rescue and relief of the suffering survivors. At 
this mass-meeting this Relief Committee was selected from among the leading 
and most highly esteemed citizens of Western Pennsylvania. 

The gentlemen chosen to conduct this noble mission of charity in 
every instance occupy positions of prominence in the great industrial and com- 
mercial enterprises of their city. It would be superfluous to allude to • 
this fact where these gentlemen are so well and favorably known, but 
as contributions have come to them from tens of thousands in distant parts 
of the country it is believed to be not out of place to make this favorable com- 
ment. 

On the 1st of June, the day after the disaster, the labors that confronted this 
Committee were of indescribable magnitude. The people left surviving at 
Johnstown and elsewhere in the stricken region were totally isolated from the 
outside world. Eailway and telegraphic lines on either side of Johnstown were 
scattered and carried away for many miles in the general ruin. As soon as 
communication could be established in a temporary way, this Committee at 
once pushed forward provisions for the sustenance of the living and coffins and 
caskets for the burial of the dead. In every way they directed and performed 
the work of relief with intense energy and most zealous devotion. 

As soon as possible the general committee appointed sub-committees to organ- 
ize, control and guide the various departments of the dispensation of relief, such 
as the recovery and decent interment of the dead, the furnishing of food and 
raiment to the 30,000 destitute survivors, the clearing of debris from the 
public streets, and the erection of temporary shelter and of permanent homes. 
All this vast work of benevolence was faithfully and thoroughly done. From 
the time of the advent of this Committee at Johnstown no one has been allowed 
to suffer for food or other essential necessaries of life. 

In fine, the undersigned Commission feel certain that the sacred mission of 
charity confided to the Citizens' Committee has been performed with a noble 
fidelity that entitles the gentlemen composing this Committee to the gratitude 
of the entire people of the Conemaugh Valley ,°and also to the thanks of all who 
sent their contributions to aid in relieving the effects of this terrible calamity.

TO THE READER. 

This Report comprises individual contributions from one penny up 
to fifteen thousand dollars, and is arranged alphabetically, rather than 
under the heads of trades or professions. 

The church collections taken Sabbath, June 2d, under the head 
of Churches, and the contributions of workingmen, under the head 
of Employes, are the only attempts at classification. 

The names and amounts sent in through the daily press will be 
found under the name of each paper. 

The amounts received from other cities are entered in sums as they 
came, detailed statements of names of contributors and amounts 
given having been published by their local committees, as in the case 
of Chicago and other cities. 

Notwithstanding the care taken to make this Report correct in 
every particular, errors in names and places may have crept in. 
One thing is sure, that every dollar received is here acknowledged, 
and as the Auditor's Report will show, accounted for in full. The 
expense of carrying on the work having been met privately. 

Should any contributor not find his name recorded, let him recall 
the circumstances under which he gave, whether as "Cash," with- 
holding his name, or through his church, club, secret organization, or 
daily paper. 

It is regretted that this report (which is solely of the amounts re- 
ceived and expended by the Citizens' Committee), cannot embrace the 
list of moneys and goods raised in this city by the Americus Club, the 
Grand Army of the Republic, Masonic and other orders, which 
would easily aggregate an additional five thousand dollars contrib- 
uted by the citizens of Pittsburgh and Allegheny.

DONATIONS 



It is a matter of regret that this list is not complete, many con- 
tributions of goods having been received and forwarded where the 
names of the donors were not given. This is especially true of the 
first train load of supplies made up on Liberty avenue early Satur- 
day morning, June 1st, by the merchants, who contributed groceries, 
the citizens who brought clothing of every kind, and in many cases 
deposited their baskets of marketing. In the eager desire to help, 
there was no thought of having their names or gifts recorded. Let 
those who gave and do not find their names here, recall the pressure
